Health is wealth, no matter how much you have, you need to be alive to enjoy the wealth, I came across this ten health tips, and I feel it would be great to share them with my faithful readers. Here they are, ten health tips:
1. Wear a pedometer:
A pedometer is a device used to measure the distance you trek in a day, walking is a good form of exercise, but its usually under-used, we are advised to walk at least 30 minutes everyday at a fast pace, or take 10,000 steps in a day... Look on the bright side, those of us without cars have got a good excuse to trek, lol...
2. Eat at least two fish meals per week.
Fishes contain essential oils that have been found to be good for the heart and brain, and they help tp prevent heart disease, fish is very good for infants as it helps their brain development. So slow down on the cholestrol ridden chicken, and go the fish way...
3. Drink lots of water.
This wont come as a surprise to most people, water is really the best cure for thirst, and it helps in cleaning the body of toxic substances, the great Afrobeat musician Fela even sang about the benefits of water in his song Water e no get enemy, yes, we all know this, but how many of us actually practice it? Drink at least 4 glasses of water everyday, so when next you go clubbin, and your friends ask what you are going to 'pop' just say water 'winks'...
4. Sleep eight hours a night.
I can see the 'Jonahs' smiling, sleep is good for your health, if you dont need sleep, God wont have designed us to fall asleep at night, it helps to reduce stress, boosts memory, reduces the risk of an heart attack, and besides it gives you the opportunity to dream about the empires you hope to build, keep dreaming, cause Law of attraction really works.
5. Keep sugar and caffeine to a minimum
Sugar and caffeine can be seen as legal evils, too much sugar is bad for you, caffeine isn't any better, high blood sugar has been linked to erectile dysfunction in men, diabetes in people and itching. Caffeine on the other hand is the active ingredient in coffee and most energy drinks, it helps keep us alert, it is however linked to heart failure, why take in stimulants to be alert, when you are alert already? Caffeine is also addictive.
